IN THE MATTER OF OTTO BOCK HEALTHCARE NORTH AMERICA, INC.
Docket No. 9378. Order, April 23, 2018 Order granting Complaint Counsel and Respondent’s joint motion to reschedule commencement of the evidentiary hearing in this proceeding. ORDER GRANTING JOINT MOTION TO RESCHEDULE THE DATE FOR THE HEARING On April 20, 2018, Complaint Counsel and Respondent Otto Bock Healthcare North America, Inc. (“Otto Bock”) jointly moved to reschedule commencement of the evidentiary hearing in this proceeding to July 10, 2018. The parties represent that Chief Administrative Law Judge D. Michael Chappell agrees with this scheduling change.
The hearing currently is scheduled to begin on June 1, 2018, which is two weeks after the scheduled start of the evidentiary hearing in In the Matter of Tronox Limited, et al., Docket No. 9377. Both hearings are assigned to Judge Chappell. If Tronox goes to trial as scheduled, the hearing in this matter may not be handled expeditiously. In these circumstances, it would be difficult to provide adequate notice to witnesses of the dates when they would be expected to testify and for counsel for each side efficiently to allocate their time and resources. Consequently, we find that there is good cause to reschedule the hearing date. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the evidentiary hearing in this proceeding shall commence on July 10, 2018, and that prehearing deadlines shall be appropriately extended by the Administrative Law Judge.
By the Commission.
